Davenport Mayor Bill Gluba held a news conferences Wednesday after the results were announced and called it "a great day for all of the Quad-Cities."

The Davenport stadium opened in 1931 and was extensively renovated in 2004. It borders the Mississippi River and the Centennial Bridge dominates the right field side of the ballpark.

The stadium is home to the Quad-Cities River Bandits, a Class A affiliate of the Houston Astros.
